Refugee, Appeals & H&C

Refugee Applications

Refugee Applications allow individuals who fear persecution, war, or human rights violations in their home country to seek protection in Canada. Applicants must demonstrate a well-founded fear of persecution based on race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group. The process includes submitting a claim, attending hearings, and providing supporting evidence. We provide expert guidance throughout the refugee claim process, including application preparation, documentation, legal representation, and support at hearings to ensure your rights are protected and your claim is presented effectively.

Refugee Appeals

Refugee Appeals provide individuals whose refugee claims have been refused the opportunity to challenge the decision before the Refugee Appeal Division (RAD). The appeal allows applicants to present new evidence, clarify inconsistencies, or address errors in the initial decision. It is an important step to seek protection for those at risk of persecution or harm in their home country. We offer professional guidance in preparing appeal submissions, compiling supporting documents, and representing clients throughout the RAD process to ensure the strongest possible case for overturning a refusal.

Pre-Removal Risk Assessment (PRRA)

The Pre-Removal Risk Assessment (PRRA) is a protection process for individuals facing removal from Canada who fear persecution, torture, or risk to life or cruel and unusual treatment if returned to their home country. It assesses new risks that were not considered in previous immigration or refugee decisions. Applicants must provide credible evidence and documentation to support their claim.

Detention Reviews

Detention Reviews are formal proceedings conducted to assess whether an individual held in immigration detention should continue to be detained or be released while their immigration matter is resolved. Reviews consider factors such as flight risk, public safety, and compliance with immigration laws. Individuals have the right to legal representation and to present evidence supporting their release. We assist clients in preparing for detention reviews, gathering supporting documents, and advocating on their behalf to ensure fair consideration and, where possible, secure release from detention while their case is ongoing.

Admissibility Hearings

Admissibility Hearings are legal proceedings conducted by the Immigration Division of the Immigration and Refugee Board (IRB) to determine whether a foreign national or permanent resident should be allowed to enter or remain in Canada. These hearings address issues such as criminality, misrepresentation, or violations of immigration law. The outcome can result in removal, deportation, or allowed entry/remain under specific conditions. We provide expert representation and guidance, helping clients prepare evidence, develop legal arguments, and navigate the hearing process to protect their rights and achieve the best possible outcome.

Humanitarian and Compassionate (H&C) Applications

Humanitarian and Compassionate (H&C) applications provide a pathway for individuals in Canada to request permanent residency based on exceptional circumstances, even if they do not meet standard immigration requirements. These applications are considered on factors such as establishment in Canada, family ties, best interests of children, and hardship if required to leave.

We assist clients in preparing strong H&C applications by:
• Assessing eligibility and personal circumstances
• Gathering compelling supporting evidence
• Drafting detailed submission letters
• Ensuring all documentation meets IRCC requirements

Our goal is to present a persuasive and well-organized case, maximizing the chance of approval for those seeking to remain in Canada on humanitarian and compassionate grounds.
